    35  ## Authentication
    36  
    37  The Fastly provider offers an API key based method of providing credentials for
    38  authentication. The following methods are supported, in this order, and
    39  explained below:
    40  
    41  - Static API key
    42  - Environment variables
    43  
    44  
    45  ### Static API Key ###
    46  
    47  Static credentials can be provided by adding a `api_key` in-line in the
    48  Fastly provider block:
    49  
    50  Usage:
    51  
    52  ```
    53  provider "fastly" {
    54    api_key = "test"
    55  }
    56  
    57  resource "fastly_service_v1" "myservice" {
    58    # ...
    59  }
    60  ```
    61  
    62  The API key for an account can be found on the Account page: https://app.fastly.com/#account
    63  
    64  ###Environment variables
    65  
    66  You can provide your API key via `FASTLY_API_KEY` environment variable,
    67  representing your Fastly API key. When using this method, you may omit the
    68  Fastly `provider` block entirely:
    69  
    70  ```
    71  resource "fastly_service_v1" "myservice" {
    72    # ...
    73  }
    74  ```
    75  
    76  Usage:
    77  
    78  ```
    79  $ export FASTLY_API_KEY="afastlyapikey"
    80  $ terraform plan
    81  ```
    82

    86  
    87  * `api_key` - (Optional) This is the API key. It must be provided, but
    88    it can also be sourced from the `FASTLY_API_KEY` environment variable
